Examination dates

Annotation -

The course aims to inform students about the advantages and specifics of working at the micro and nanoscale. Emphasis will be placed on the description of governing phenomena, which in many ways differ significantly from those observed in "macroscopic" life. It will also outline i) the creation of equipment from design to implementation - design, optimization, and technology of micro-equipment, ii) the application of microsystems in practice, iii) the use of computational tools for simulation of multi-phase systems and surface phenomena in the micro and nanoworld.
